tunisia is the problem where it could become more than just a transit route as tunisia is currently fighting alongside islamists, and in mali, they return home. there's that concern. tunisia is concerned about french presence in mali. members, especially parliamentarians, they are concerned that the war in mali might become a potent recruitment for disgruntled tunisians, and fear a backlash. so far cross border links have been tenuous too far, based more on greed and criminality than ideology, but that could change. the future of tunisia and in morocco and elsewhere is that jihadigan steers, militants, and forces are destabilizing countries that are transitioning from a carrying route and have weak security institutions. tunisia authorities today are struggling to reform their dysfunctional security services. they are struggling to develop the capacity to police to counter the threats. even countries with strong security forces, there's dangerous there. morocco, for example, has been on high alert since the french intervention. we know several joined armed groups in mali, about 70 of them th
